Wow, the student journalist who won the Mike Wallace Memorial Scholarship at the News Emmys just called out CBS News.

"While I want to thank CBS News for funding this generous gift toward my education, I want to also acknowledge how the recent direction of the outlet stains the legacy of Mike Wallace, the name sake of this scholarship." (Applause and some surprise in the room)

Azzi Fudd is a 23-year-old public figure and this is a unique and obviously newsworthy story. The Wings should let her answer it where she says this is the one and only time she will address it. And then everyone moves on.

Does it always have to be at the start of football season?

Yes. Yes it does.

My latest for @sportico on the new tradition of carriage disputes before the first pass is thrown on a new season (for most schools and the entire NFL).

“Initially the end of October was ideal but that’s probably not going to happen.”

My latest is on WNBA players growing doubtful that a new CBA agreement will be reached before the deadline in two months.
